CHURN Filed May 31. 1927 11 JAdam/a I BY. INVENTOR WITNESS: ATTORNEY Patented Dec. 31, 1929 rm Price NATHANJAGKSON ADAMS, on ro'rnnr, TEXAS CHURN Application filed May 31, 1927. Serial No. 195,511.

This invention relates to churns, and more particularly to a dasher therefor, and con templates the provision of a receptacle forming'part of the dasher, and adapted to contain either a cooling or heating agent as the occasion may require,.so that the'contents of the churn can be quickly brought to the proper temperature to facilitate and accelerate the churning effecton the contents.

1 The nature and advantages of the invention will be better understood when the following detail description is read in connection with the accompanying drawings, the invention residing in the construction, combimore particularly to Figures 1 and 2, 10 repnation and arrangement of parts as claimed,

In the drawings forming part of this application like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views and wherein *Figure 1 is a sectional view through a dasher churn illustrating one embodiment of the invention.

Figure 2 is a sectional view on line22 of .Figure 1. i Referring to the drawings in detaihand resents the shaft of the dasher, the dasher itself being indicated at 11. 1 While the dasher may be of any suitable design or construction, 7

and formed from any desired material, it is herein illustrated as being made fromwood, and'composed of cross pieces.

Interposed between the shaft 10 and the dasher or agitator 11 is areceptacle 12, preferably constructed of metal, although it may be formed from any other suitable material, and vary in cross sectional contour without departing from the inventive idea. The receptacle reposes upon the dasher 11 to which it is secured by suitable fastening elements 13 which are also employed to hold the component parts of the dasher together. The receptacle 12 is provided with a removable cover 1 1, which may beassociated with the receptaclein any suitable manner. The cover is preferably threaded on the receptacle as at 15, and is adapted to be removed to permit the receptacle to be filled with a heating or cooling agent as the occasion may require. In other words hot water may be placed in the receptacle, or ice or some other suitable cooling agent, the purpose of the receptacle being to bring the contents of the churn, in which the dasher operates, to a temperature which will both facilitate and accelerate the churning effect upon said contents. In so far as the inventive idea is concerned, it is manifest that the churn dasher in its entirety, may be reciprocated or rotated in any suitable manner. Rising from the cover 14 is a hollow boss 16 into which a sleeve 17 is arranged, the sleeve being adapted to receive and support the shaft 10; The sleeve 17 is preferably threaded into the hollow boss as illustrated.

While it is believed that from the foregoing description, the nature and advantages of the invention will 'be readily apparent, I desire to have it understood, that I do not limit myself to what is herein shown and described and that such changes may be re sorted to when desired fall within the scope of what is claimed.

What is claimed is:

A churn dasher comprising a receptacle for a liquid, and including a removable closure, means carried by the closure for operating the device, an agitator carried by the bottom of the receptacle, and means passed through the bottom from the inside of the receptacle and into said dasher when the closure is re moved, to hold the agitator 1n position for use. i
